Just wanted to say Hi. I'm new to this forum.
Heres a pic of my car:
http://www.geocities.com/dusty0182/

Its a 97 Accord EX Coupe w/manual tranny, 58k miles.
And yes, its ALL stock for now because I just bought it
Do you think $13,000 was a good price?
(its super clean and runs great)

 

Hello and Welcome!! Good find on the accord!!

 

tIzZiTe y0!

welcome

 

Looks like a 97 coupe, lx 5spd?

 

97 Accord Coupe EX w/ 5spd tran.

 

Guy at my work has the same exact one..heh. Same color as mine though.
Just ditch the pinstriping and get some 94-95 EX alloys and it'll look great!

 

I got 3 words for ya: dont get 'tezzas

 

lol, don't worry. I'm keeping the exterior pretty much stock, except for jdm headlights and maybe a couple other things that look nice.

 

I think its an unspoken consensus that those rims have got to go. EX alloys would be nice. Or 6th gen SE rims.

 

i'm thinkin 17's and a nice tint should do that car well...

 

those are nice factory alloys...

i would keep em on there

 

tizzite = slow, remember man he just has an lx.....

 

Yo I too have a 97 accord coupe EX five speed. does yours have leather? any way there is a lot you can do.

 

You're car is in desperate need of a drop. Has potential!

Jason-

 

It's a nice ride, you just need to lower it and put on different rims. As for the price, if you're happy with it then who cares.

 

looks like an ex to me

 

He said it was an EX, so chances are it's a nay on the LX'ay.

 

nice ride! What is going to be your first mod?

 

Keep the rims on! Go for a sleeper look.

BTW: $13,000 seems high

dude thats pretty low, what kind of springs are you using, and just fyi going too low can and will adversly effect handling, as cornering on bumpstops is not good, b/c you have no suspension travel

 

thats a photoshop dood

 

First mod will be to remove the pin stripe, if you consider that one.
Next will be eibach prokit (1.2" ?). I think my rims will look decent once I get springs. No, its not leather. And yes, its an EX not an LX. I'm not sure what else I'll do yet, probably jdm headlights, simple engine mods and new intake/exhaust until I graduate college in December. Then I'll be able to afford an H22...
I went back to the dealer today to sign more papers and they decided to drop the price to $12,000 to make my notes cheaper woohoo!!

I would not get the Eibach Pro Kit. The pic you see above is a little too low for me. I got the Pro Kit and people can barely tell I am dropped. I dont mind to that much, but I think the Eibach Sportline's are perfect.

 

Sweet ride!!! what do you plan on doing?
